How can a preset be extended/overriden

[Muizzyranking]

I am finding it very difficult to override preset default config. When i try to copy the layout directly and place directly, the picker doesnt work. What am i doing wrong?

In the opts.picker.layouts table, you can overwrite or define your own layout presets. The specified name can then be used.

I have created three telescope-like layouts my_telescope, my_telescope_vertical, and my_telescope_vertical_no_preview and use them depending on the window size in opts.picker.layout as default. In opts.picker.sources you can. set the layout per picker or in the picker call directly snacks.picker.files({layout = { preset = 'my_telescope' }}).

  opts = {
    picker = {
      -- The default layout preset.
      layout = function()
        return vim.o.columns >= 120 and 'my_telescope'
          or vim.o.lines >= 25 and 'my_telescope_vertical'
          or 'my_telescope_vertical_no_preview'
      end,
      previewers = {
        ...
      },
      sources = {
        ...
        select = { layout = { preset = 'my_select' } },
      },
      layouts = {
        my_telescope = {
          -- A borderless layout with a vertical split with a preview on the right.
          -- - Based on the default `telescope` layout.
          -- - Replaces `rounded` with `solid` borders.
          reverse = true,
          layout = {
            box = 'horizontal',
            backdrop = false,
            width = 0.8,
            height = 0.9,
            border = 'none',
            {
              box = 'vertical',
              { win = 'list', title = ' Results ', title_pos = 'center', border = 'solid' },
              { win = 'input', height = 1, border = 'solid', title = '{title} {live} {flags}', title_pos = 'center' },
            },
            {
              win = 'preview',
              title = '{preview:Preview}',
              width = 0.45,
              border = 'solid',
              title_pos = 'center',
            },
          },
        },
        my_telescope_vertical = {
          ...
        },
        my_telescope_vertical_no_preview = {
          ...
        },
        my_select = {
          ...
        },
      },
    ...
